Presented at trAIDe and Maier + Vidorno Presentational Event and Round Table Discussion, 7 Nov 2016, Delhi
Water challenges in India
Water demands do not match with water resources availability
Pollution (urban, industrial, agriculture)
Climate variability and change
Floods and Droughts
Loss of habitats and species (e.g. dolphin)
Monitoring, forecasting and planning of water management
Enforcement (pollution, water allocation, water pricing)
Conflict resolution (international, inter-State, sectors)
Water resources in India As per CWC, India has 20 major river
basins receiving an annual natural runoff of 1869 BCM.
Total utilizable annual water resources are 1123 BCM 433 BCM groundwater 690 BCM surface water
Annual per capita water availability has reduced to 1545 cu. m in 2011.
Thus the country has become water stressed and there is need to augment both water supply and manage demand.

Latest government plans for river cleaning
National River Conservation Plan (NRCP): improve water quality of rivers through implementation of pollution abatement schemes. Budget of US$ 231 million for 2012-17
National Mission for Clean Ganga: specifically to improve water quality of river Ganga Budget of US$ 3.1 billion till 2020 US$ 1.2 billion alone for sewage infrastructure Projects to be implemented on Hybrid-annuity mode Up to 40% of the capital cost to be released during construction Rest as annuity over 15-20 years after construction Payment linked to performance standards
MoWR is also planning to prepare basin management plans for selected rivers with the help of international expertise.
Specific needs concerning Ganga basin
Thrust areas in Ganga river basin for which MoWR, RD & GR is looking for solutions from businesses: Treatment of raw municipal sewage Treatment of industrial effluents Water use efficiency improvement.
Private players can take part in government projects through forming consortiums.
Invited bids will be technology neutral.
India-EU Water Partnership (IEWP) First, Indo-European Water Forum
(IEWF) was organised by EC in association with NWM in November 2015.
Declaration on India-EU Water Partnership was adopted on 30th March 2016 at EU-India Summit in Brussels.
Finally, a MoU on water partnership is signed between EC and MoWR, RD & GR during 2nd IEWF at WSDS on 7th October in Delhi.
Partnership scope include: research, institutional cooperation and business involvement.
IEWP platform for EU businesses IEWP organised meeting of 25+ EU businesses with MoWR, RD & GR
regarding innovative technologies for cleaning river Ganga.
IEWP team was invited by MoWR to contribute in development of ToR for a study on preparing RBMPs.
IEWP aims for synergies with the activities of MS in India and can provide a platform for new Businesses to enter India water sector.
IEWP also aims at learning from active EU business on the constraints faced for developing business and eventually address them in the wider India-EU cooperation.
A database of interested EU businesses is maintained on a website hosted by EIP water. They are regularly updated on the latest activities and events organized under IEWP. For more information: http://www.eip-water.eu/india-eu-water-partnership-iewp
